If the Rockets can win 13 of the next 19(.684), they'll be 20-11 going into the MAC tourney.

RE: Dollar General Bowl game thread - Toledo vs. Appalachian State
Regarding our bowl game with App State, we simply didn't take it serious and did not prepare. We all know how one sided a game can get when one team is not into it like the other team. This is no excuse, and no disrespect for App State. App is a great team and program, and they deserved to win that game. I am getting tired of seeing trolls on our board. Every team has been on the losing side of such games- including perrenial national championship teams...just ask to$u and ND. If we played App State with say a playoff appearance on the line, the score would not have been as lopsided. Totally different game. I blame the players and coaches for not getting up for this game. It was an embarrasment.

I don't know...maybe I'm alone in my thinking here, but perhaps it's time to lock this thread down? There's really not much more to say. There are no good excuses, and we lost to an App State team that was clearly better than us that night. Believe it or not, I'm more interested now in the development of this team and incoming recruits over the next 3 seasons, as I think we can have something very positive to aim for in that timeframe.

Uh I'd say UT is 5 tds worse than App. Our speed on D killed.

While Appy State was definitely 5 scores better than the Rockets in that particular game, you are drawing a lot of sweeping generalizations from one game and extending them beyond where they may be valid. The Rocket offense put up 30 points against a nationally ranked Miami Hurricane defense. So, are you also going to extrapolate that one game to conclude that the Appy State's Defense is 30 points per game better than Miami of Florida? Learn how to be a gracious winner and save your chest thumping for your own board.

And it's Appalachian or App State.... not Appy.... This is the disrespect that gets your board trolled

The worst part about losing that bad to App State is that average football fans around Toledo were just starting to take UT seriously. I frequently hear "How did Toledo lose to Appy App State?" Most people around here don't even know that Appala U is no longer FCS. Even my Great Grand Appy was upset. He fought in the great App Trail Wars, when the Appalachians fought the Seminoles. The Apps were outnumbered, but they fought with courage from their entrenched positions that were often referred to as "holes" in the old country. My Great Grand Appy said that to this day, people remember and still celebrate the brave Appholes of the old country.

Lamb's sign in the 4th quarter was due to attitudes like these.

Good luck in the future guys, Candle is a good coach in the MAC.

I’m glad I met a few Appy fans in Mobile that seemed like good people because the ones trolling here have been complete tools. A Sun Belt team’s fan base whining about respect and poor attitude. Welcome to D1 G5 college football idiot. You don’t get respect from really anyone

An access bowl requires a MAC Championship first and therefore the act of obtaining a MAC Championship speaks to the prospective ability of a program to reach an access bowl.

Ohio's whipping of UAB is nice for the fans but doesn't do anything for us out on the trail.

I don't think it's as black n' white. Everything contributes to program perception in some fashion. Not that I think any UT signees are second guessing their decision based on that one game. But when you're on ESPN (not 2 or 3 or U) and the only game on the telly, you really want to shine.

This is the exactly why this loss set us back.... 7pm ESPN total exposure and the most important game of the year.... most watched...important from exposure and branding point of view.... this game if well played, would have nailed home the season and converted the casual fan. Huge set back, APP ST step forward... Candle let up

You'd think your skin would be a little thicker given your vast experience. Name calling is always a sign of maturity as well.

You'd rather make excuses for a loss than congratulate the better team. All I've seen is App fans point this out. Good luck next season. 04-cheers

Lol. That's what you want? Okay. Guys, let's all tell Appalachian State (I spelled out the entire word this time) fans how much we respect their program and how they have a quality team. Then maybe he will finally leave, after saying he was leaving our page for about the 15th time. The bottom line is that we had a great season and it sucks to end it on a shutout. Now that we are all passed that and have acknowledged Appalachian State's Supreme Greatness, maybe they will lose the desire and need to pathetically fish for compliments.

Ok you had your fun. Ill endure your humor as I enjoy your misery sitting under grey skies and thinking all year about the embarrassing loss to Appy. The best part is you and your troll UofToledoFans will read this and I'll not be reading your witty reply.

Of course, you read THIS one. And you’ll read the others because that’s what we do-we torture ourselves over sports. You just won’t be able to respond now, but, Oh, you’ll read every one of them.

I was at the pool today. It's going down to 65 tonight. Tomorrow is suppose to be sunny and 78. I won't be thinking about the loss. Good luck!
